I am writing to see if you or someone you know may be interested in a possible position at the University of South Florida. My department may have two, one-year instructor appointments available next year with the possibility of renewal for up to three years. If these positions become available, we will be seeking specialists in rhetoric and composition and may consider doctoral students.

We would be looking for someone with 1) strong background in rhet/comp theory and pedagogy; 2) effectiveness in teaching first-year composition; 3) successful integration of new technologies in computers and composition; 4) research pursuits appropriate to a 4/4 teaching load; 5) the ability to assume leadership and/or mentoring responsibilities in an evolving composition program as called upon by the director.

The salary for these positions will likely be $36,000 for a nine-month contract with benefits. Interested persons may contact me by return email at kmurray@cas.usf.edu. For more information about the USF First-Year Composition Program, see http://www.collegewriting.us.
